Charlotte (Michigan) – First two players face each other head-to-head, then wild scenes follow. Fists also flew in the victory of the Eastern Conference leaders Detroit Pistons at the Charlotte Hornets. Four professionals and later also the host coach were excluded from the NBA game, which the Pistons won 110:104. “It looked like two men were involved in a heated discussion. And then the situation just escalated,” Charlotte coach Charles Lee said.
